time, to suppress false detections caused by changes in temperature, humidity, dirt and other environmental effects. 1.1 Differences With QT1101 The QT1103 is a general replacement device for the highly popular QT1101. It has all of the same features as the older device but differs in the following ways: • Rs resistors on each channel eliminated • Up to 4x more sensitive for a given value of Cs • Shorter burst lengths, less power for a given value of Cs • ‘Burst A and B’ only mode for up to eight keys, with less power • ‘Burst B’ only mode for up to four keys, with less power than ‘Burst A and B’ mode • Requires an external reset signal 1.2.6 Detection Integrator Confirmation Detection Integrator (DI) confirmation reduces the effects of noise on the QT1103. The DI mechanism requires consecutive detections over a number of measurement bursts for a touch to be confirmed and indicated on the outputs. In a like manner, the end of a touch (loss of signal) has to be confirmed over a number of measurement bursts. This process acts as a type of ‘debounce’ against noise. A per-key counter is incremented each time the key has exceeded its threshold and stayed there for a number of measurement bursts. When this counter reaches a preset limit the key is finally declared to be touched. For example, if the limit value is six, then the device has to exceed its threshold and stay there for six measurement bursts in succession without going below the threshold level, before the key is declared to be touched. If on any measurement burst the signal is not seen to exceed the threshold level, the counter is cleared and the process has to start from the beginning. The QT1103 should be used instead of the QT1101 for new designs due to a simpler circuit, lower power and lower cost. 1.2 Parameters 1.2.1 Introduction The QT1103 is an easy to use, ten touch-key sensor IC based on Quantum’s patented charge-transfer (‘QT’) principles for robust operation and ease of design. This device has many advanced features which provide for reliable, trouble-free operation over the life of the product. In normal operation, the start of a touch must be confirmed for six measurement bursts and the end of a touch for three. In a special ‘Fast Detect‘ mode (available via jumper resistors) (Tables 1.2 and 1.6), confirmation of the start of a touch requires only three and the end of a touch requires two measurement bursts. 1.2.2 Burst Operation Fast detect is only available when AKS is disabled. The device operates in ‘burst mode’. Each key is acquired using a burst of charge-transfer sensing pulses whose count varies depending on the value of the reference capacitor Cs and the load capacitance Cx. In LP mode, the device sleeps in an ultra-low current state between bursts to conserve power. The keys signals are acquired using three successive bursts of pulses: 1.2.7 Spread-spectrum Operation The bursts operate over a spread of frequencies, so that external fields will have minimal effect on key operation and emissions are very weak. Spread spectrum operation works with the DI mechanism to dramatically reduce the probability of false detection due to noise. Burst A: Keys 0, 1, 4, 5 Burst B: Keys 2, 3, 6, 7 Burst C: Keys 8, 9 1.2.8 Sync Mode On power-up, all ten keys are self-calibrated within 300ms (typical) to provide reliable operation under almost any conditions. The QT1103 features a Sync mode to allow the device to slave to an external signal source, such as a mains signal (50/60Hz), to limit interference effects. This is performed using the SYNC/LP pin. Sync mode operates by triggering three sequential acquire bursts, in sequence C-A-B from the Sync signal. Thus, each Sync pulse causes all ten keys to be acquired (see Section 2.5.2, page 8). 1.2.4 Autorecalibration 1.2.9 Low Power (LP) Mode The device can time out and recalibrate each key independently after a fixed interval of continuous touch detection, so that the keys can never become ‘stuck on’ due to foreign objects or other sudden influences. After recalibration the key will continue to function normally. The delay is selectable to be either 10s, 60s, or infinite (disabled). The device features an LP mode for microamp levels of current drain with a slower response time, to allow use in battery operated devices. On detection of touch, the device automatically reverts to its normal mode and asserts the DETECT pin active to wake up a host controller. The device remains in normal, full acquire speed mode until another pulse is seen on its SYNC/LP pin, upon which it goes back to LP mode (see Optimization of LP Mode, page 9). Bursts always operate in C-A-B sequence. 1.2.3 Self-calibration The device also autorecalibrates a key when its signal reflects a sufficient decrease in capacitance. In this case the device recalibrates after ~2 seconds so as to recover normal operation quickly. Lq When eight or fewer keys are required, current drain in LP mode can be further reduced by choosing appropriate channels on the QT1103 (see the end of Section 2.5.3, page 8). 3 QT1103_3R0.03_0607 If AKS is disabled, all keys can operate simultaneously. 1.2.10 Adjacent Key Suppression (AKS™) AKS™ is a Quantum-patented feature that can be enabled via a resistor strap option. AKS works to prevent multiple keys from responding to a single touch, a common complaint about capacitive touch panels. This can happen with closely spaced keys, or with control surfaces that have water films on them. 1.2.11 Outputs The QT1103 has a serial output using one or two wires, RS-232 data format, and automatic baud rate detection. A simple protocol is employed. The QT1103 operates in slave mode, i.e. it only sends data to the host after receiving a request from the host. AKS operates by comparing signal strengths from keys within a group of keys to suppress touch detections from those that have a weaker signal change than the dominant one. An additional /CHANGE (state changed) signal allows the use of the serial interface to be optimised, rather than being polled continuously. The QT1103 has two different AKS groupings of keys, selectable via option resistors. These groupings are: • AKS operates in three groups of keys • AKS operates over all ten keys 1.2.12 Simplified Mode To reduce the need for option resistors, the simplified operating mode places the part into fixed settings with only the AKS feature being selectable. LP mode is also possible in this configuration. Simplified mode is suitable for most applications. These two modes allow the designer to provide AKS while also providing for shift or function operations.

Keys will work properly once all keys have been calibrated after reset. Sync mode allows the designer to synchronize acquire bursts to an external signal source, such as mains frequency (50/60Hz), to suppress interference. It can also be used to synchronize two QT parts which operate near each other, so that they will not cross-interfere if two or more of the keys (or associated wiring) of the two parts are near each other. The QT1103 does not have a brownout detector; its reset input must be taken active (low) following power-up and when Vdd falls below 2V. The SYNC input is positive pulse triggered. Following each rising edge the device will generate three acquire bursts in C-A-B sequence. 2.1 Reset and Startup Time Figure 2.1 Acquire Bursts in C-A-B Sequence 2.2 Option Resistors The option resistors are read on power-up only. There are two primary option mode configurations: full, and simplified. SYNC Full options mode: Seven 1M option resistors are required as shown in Figure 1.1. All seven resistors are mandatory. Burst C Simplified mode: A 1M resistor should be connected from SNS6K to SNS7. In simplified mode, only one additional 1M option resistor is required for the AKS feature (Figure 1.2). Burst A Note that the presence and connection of option resistors will influence the required values of Cs; this effect will be especially noticeable if the Cs values are under 22nF. Cs values should be adjusted for optimal sensitivity after the option resistors are connected. Burst B If the SYNC input does not change level for ~150ms, the QT1103 will free-run, generating a continuous stream of acquire bursts C-A-B-C-A-B-C-A-... . While the QT1103 is in free-run operation, a rising edge on the SYNC input will return the QT1103 to synchronised operation. 2.3 DETECT Pin DETECT represents the functional logical-OR of all ten keys. DETECT can be used to wake a battery-operated product upon human touch. Note that the SYNC input must remain at one level (high or low) for >150µs to guarantee that the QT1103 will recognise that level. The output polarity and drive of DETECT are governed according to Table 1.4, page 6, and Table 1.7, page 7. 2.5.3 Low Power (LP) Mode LP mode allows the device to be switched between full speed operation (14ms (normal mode) or 28ms (fast mode) typical response time and normal power consumption), and Low Power operation (low average power consumption but an increased maximum response time) according to the needs of the application. There are three maximum response time settings for low power operation: 70ms, 110ms, and 190ms nominal; the response time setting is determined by option resistors SL_1 and SL_0 (see Table 1.5). Slower response times result in a lower average power drain. 2.4 /CHANGE Pin The /CHANGE pin can be used to tell the host that a change in touch state has been detected (i.e. a key has been touched or released), and that the host should read the new key states over the serial interface. /CHANGE is pulled low when a key state change has occurred. /CHANGE is very useful to prevent transmissions with duplicate data. If /CHANGE is not used, the host would need to keep polling the QT1103 constantly, even if there are no changes in touch. Upon detection of a key, /CHANGE will pull low and stay low until the serial interface has been polled by the host. /CHANGE will then be released and return high until the next change of key state, either on or off, on any key (Figures 2.6, 2.9). Operation in low power mode is governed by the state of the LP input and whether at least one key has a confirmed touch. If the LP input is at a constant low level, then the QT1103 will remain in full speed operation (14ms or 28ms typical response time and normal power consumption), as in Figure 2.2. The /CHANGE pin is open-drain, and requires a ~100k pull-up resistor to Vdd in order to function properly. Figure 2.2 Full Speed Operation 2.5 SYNC/LP Pin touch 2.5.1 Introduction The SYNC / LP pin function is configured according to the SL_0 and SL_1 resistor connections to either Vdd or Vss (see Table 1.5). LP pin bursts full speed operation Lq 8 QT1103_3R0.03_0607 If this is done the QT1103 automatically selects an optimized LP operation, which gives a significantly lower power consumption than would be achieved if additional acquire bursts were used. If the LP input is at a constant high level, then the QT1103 will enter low power operation whenever it is not detecting a touch. It will switch automatically to full speed operation while there is a touch, and revert to low power operation at the end of the touch. This is shown in Figure 2.3. Optimized LP operation is identical to the standard LP operation in all other ways; it is controlled as described previously. Figure 2.3 Low Power/Full Speed Operation etouch 2.6 AKS™ Function Pins LP pin The QT1103 features an adjacent key suppression (AKS™) function with two modes. Option resistors act to set this feature according to Tables 1.2 and 1.6. AKS can be disabled, allowing any combination of keys to become active at the same time. When operating, the modes are: bursts low power full speed low power Global: The AKS function operates across all ten keys. This means that only one key can be active at any one time. While there is no touch, if the LP input is driven high then low, the QT1103 will enter low power operation, as described previously, and remain in low power operation when LP is taken low. When there is a touch the QT1103 will switch automatically to full speed operation. At the end of the touch the choice of operation depends on the state of the LP input. This is shown in Figures 2.4 and 2.5 - the first with the LP pin being low at the end of the touch, and the second with the LP pin being high at the end of the touch. Groups: The AKS function operates among three groups of keys: 0-1-4-5, 2-3-6-7, and 8-9. This means that up to three keys can be active at any one time. In Group mode, keys in one group have no AKS interaction with keys in any other group. Note that in Fast Detect mode, AKS can only be off. 2.7 MOD_0, MOD_1 Inputs Figure 2.4 LP Pin Low at End of Touch In full option mode, the MOD_0 and MOD_1 resistors are used to set the 'Max On-Duration' recalibration timeouts. If a key becomes stuck on for a lengthy duration of time, this feature will cause an automatic recalibration event of that specific key only once the specified on-time has been exceeded. Settings of 10s, 60s, and infinite are available. etouch LP pin The Max On-Duration feature operates on a key-by-key basis; when one key is stuck on, its recalibration has no effect on other keys. bursts low power full speed The logic combination on the MOD option pins sets the timeout delay; see Table 1.3. Figure 2.5 LP Pin High at End of Touch Simplified mode MOD timing: In simplified mode, the max on-duration is fixed at 60s. etouch 2.8 Fast Detect Mode LP pin In many applications, it is desirable to sense touch at high speed. Examples include scrolling ‘slider’ strips or ‘Off’ buttons. It is possible to place the device into a ‘Fast Detect’ mode that usually requires under 14ms (typical) to respond. This is accomplished internally by setting the Detect Integrator to only three counts, i.e. only three successive detections are required to detect touch. bursts low power full speed low power Note that the LP input must remain at one level (high or low) for >150µs to guarantee that the QT1103 will recognise that level. In LP mode, ‘Fast’ detection will not speed up the initial delay (which could be up to 190ms typical depending on the option setting). However, once a key is detected the device is forced back into normal speed mode. It will remain in this faster mode until requested to return to LP mode. Optimization of LP Mode For low power consumption, when up to eight keys are required, all keys should be connected to QT1103 channels that are measured during acquire bursts A and B (i.e. K0...K7). When used in a ‘slider’ application, it is normally desirable to run the keys without AKS. In Fast mode the time required to process a key release is reduced from three samples to two. Fast Detect mode can be enabled as shown in Tables 1.2 and 1.6. For the lowest possible power consumption, when up to four keys are required, all keys should be connected to QT1103 channels that are measured during acquire burst B (i.e. K2, K3, K6, K7). Lq 9 QT1103_3R0.03_0607 Depending on the timing of a 1W host transmission, the QT1103 device may need to abort an acquisition burst, and rerun it after the transmission is complete and a reply has been sent. As a consequence, each host request can potentially result in a small, unnoticeable increase in detection delay. 2.9 Simplified Mode A simplified operating mode which does not require the majority of option resistors is available. This mode is set by connecting a resistor labeled SMR between pins SNS6K and SNS7 (see Figure 1.2). In this mode there is only one option available - AKS enable or disable. When AKS is disabled, Fast Detect mode is enabled; when AKS is enabled, Fast Detect mode is off. 1W Connection: The 1W pin should be pulled high with a resistor. When not in use it floats high, hence this causes no increase in supply current. During transmission from the host, the host may drive the 1W line with either an open-drain or a push-pull driver. However, if the host uses push-pull driving, it must release the 1W line as soon as it is done with its stop bit so that there is no drive conflict when the QT1103 sends its reply. AKS in this mode is global only (i.e. operates across all functioning keys). The other option features are fixed as follows: DETECT Pin: Push-pull, active high SYNC/LP Function: LP mode, ~110ms response time Max On-Duration: 60 seconds See also Tables 1.6 and 1.7. If open-drain transmission is used by the host, the value of the pull-up resistor should be optimized for the desired baud rate: faster rates require a lower value of resistor to prevent rise-time problems. A typical value for 19,200 baud might be 100k. An oscilloscope should be used to confirm that the resistor is not causing excessive timing skew that might cause bit errors. 2.10 Unused Keys Unused keys should be disabled by removing the corresponding Cs and Rsns components and connecting SNS pins as shown in the ‘Unused’ column of Table 1.1. Unused keys are ignored and do not factor into the AKS function (Section 2.6). The QT1103 uses push-pull drive to transmit data out on the 1W line back to the host. When the stop bit level is established, 1W is floated; for this reason, a pull-up resistor should always be used on the 1W pin to prevent the signal from drifting to an undefined state. A 100k pull-up resistor on 1W is recommended, unless the host uses open-drain drive to the QT1103, in which case a lower value may be required (see prior paragraph). 2.11 Serial 1W Interface 2.11.1 Introduction The 1W serial interface is an RS-232 based auto baud rate serial asynchronous interface that requires only one wire between the host MCU and the QT1103. The serial data are extremely short and simple to interpret. 2.11.2 Basic 1W Operation The basic sequence of 1W serial operation is shown in Figure 2.6. The 1W line is bi-directional and must be pulled high with a resistor to prevent a floating, undefined state (see Section 2.11.1). Auto baud rate detection takes place by having the host device send a specific character to the QT1103, which allows the QT1103 to set its baud rate to match that of the host. One feature of this method is that the baud rate can be any rate between 8,000 and 38,400 bits per second. Neither the QT1103 nor the host device has to be accurate in their transmission rates, i.e. crystal control is not required. Oscillator Tolerance: While the auto baud rate detection mechanism has a wide tolerance for oscillator error, the QT’s oscillator should still not vary by more than ±20 percent from the recommended value. Beyond a ±20 percent error, communications at either the lower or upper stated limits could fail. The oscillator frequency can be checked with an oscilloscope by probing the pulse width on the SNS lines (see Section 3.1, page 11). Host Request Byte: The host requests the key state from the QT1103 by sending an ASCII "P" character (ASCII decimal code 80, hex 0x50) over the 1W line. The character is formatted according to conventional RS-232: Figure 2.6 Basic 1W Sequence request from host (1 byte) key state change 1W /CHANGE driven reply from QT1103 (2 bytes)* floating floating floating floating 1 ~ 3 bit periods *See Figure 2.8 Figure 2.7 1W UART Host Pattern 8 data bits no parity 1 stop bit baud rate: 8,000 - 38,400 Figure 2.7 shows the bit pattern of the host request byte (‘P’). The first bit labeled ‘S’ is the start bit, the last ‘S’ is the stop bit. This bit pattern should never be changed. The QT1103 will respond at the same baud rate as the received ‘P’ character. 1W (from host) Serial bits S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 S Lq 10 QT1103_3R0.03_0607 After sending the ‘P’ character the host must immediately float the 1W signal to prevent a drive conflict between the host and the QT1103 (see Figure 2.6). The delay from the received stop bit to the QT1103 driving the 1W pin is in the range 1-3 bit periods, so the host should float the pin within one bit period to prevent a drive conflict. Figure 2.8 UART Response Pattern on 1W Pin floating floating 1W floating (from QT1103) Serial bits S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 S S 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 S 0 1 2 3 4 5 * * 6 7 8 9 U U * * Associated key # (shown with keys 0, 2 and 7 detecting) Data Reply: Before sending a reply, the QT1103 returns the /CHANGE signal to its inactive (float-high) state. • The QT1103 then replies by sending two eight-bit characters to the host over the 1W line using the same baud rate as the request. With no keys pressed, both reply bytes are ASCII ‘@’ (0x40) characters; any keys that are pressed at the time of the reply result in their associated bits being set in the reply. Figure 2.8 shows the reply bytes when keys 0, 2 and 7 are pressed - 0x45, 0x42, and the associations between keys and bits in the reply. * Fixed bit values U - Unused bits Neither /CHANGE nor DETECT used. The host polls the device regularly to obtain key status, with a timeout in operation when awaiting the reply to each ‘P’ request. Not receiving a reply within the timeout period only occurs when the part is sleeping, and hence when no keys are active. Before triggering LP mode the host should wait for all keys to become inactive and then send an additional 'P' request to the QT1103 to ensure /CHANGE is also inactive. 2.11.4 2W Operation The QT1103 floats the 1W pin again after establishing the level of the stop bit. 1W operation, as described in Section 2.11.3, requires that the host float the 1W line while awaiting a reply from the QT1103; this is not always possible. 2.11.3 LP Mode Effects on 1W To solve this problem, the QT1103 can also receive the ‘P’ character from the host on its ‘Rx’ pin separately from the 1W pin (Figure 2.9). The host need not float the Rx line since the QT1103 will never try to drive it. The use of low power (LP) mode presents some additional 1W timing requirements. In LP mode (Section 2.5), the QT1103 will only respond to a request from the host when it is making one of its infrequent checks for a key press. Hence, in that condition most requests from the host to the QT1103 will be ignored, since the QT1103 will be sleeping and unresponsive. However, if either /CHANGE or DETECT are active the QT1103 will be at full speed, and hence will always respond to ‘P’ requests. Following a ‘P’ on Rx, the QT1103 will send the same response pattern (Figure 2.8) over the 1W line as in pure 1W mode. All other comments and timings given for 1W operation are applicable for 2W operation. LP operation is the same for 2W mode as for 1W. Note that when sleeping in LP mode, there are by definition no keys active, so there should not be a reason for the host to send the ‘P’ query command in the first place. If the Rx pin is not used, it must be tied to Vdd. 3 Design Notes Three strategies are available to the host to ensure that LP mode operates correctly: • • /CHANGE used. The host monitors /CHANGE, and only sends a ‘P’ request when it is low. The part is awake by definition when /CHANGE is low. If /CHANGE is high, key states are known to be unchanged since the last reply received from the QT1103, and so additional ‘P’ requests are not needed. Before triggering LP mode the host should wait for /CHANGE to go high after all keys have become inactive. DETECT used. The host monitors DETECT, and if it is active (i.e. the part is awake) it polls the device regularly to obtain key status. When DETECT is inactive (the part may be sleeping) no requests are sent because it is known that no keys are active. Before triggering LP mode the host should wait for DETECT to become inactive, and then send one additional 'P' request to ensure /CHANGE is also made inactive. Lq 3.1 Oscillator Frequency The QT1103’s internal oscillator runs from an external network connected to the OSC and SS pins as shown in Figures 1.1 and 1.2. The charts in these figures show the recommended values to use depending on nominal operating voltage and spread spectrum mode. If spread spectrum mode is not used, only resistor Rb1 should be used, the Css capacitor eliminated, and the SS pin pulled to Vss with a 100k resistor. Figure 2.9 2W Operation request from host (1 byte) key state change driven reply (from QT1103) (2 bytes) RX (from host) 1W floating floating (from QT1103) /CHANGE floating floating 1 ~ 3 bit periods 11 QT1103_3R0.03_0607 An out-of-spec oscillator can induce timing problems such as large variations in Max On-Duration times and response times as well as the serial port baud rate range. • Effect on serial communications: The oscillator frequency has no nominal effect on serial communications since the baud rate is set by an auto-sensing mechanism. However, if the oscillator is too far outside the recommended settings, the possible range of serial communications will shrink. For example, if the oscillator is too slow, the upper baud rate will be reduced. • An option resistor pulling low will increase sensitivity on the corresponding key; Cs will have to be reduced to compensate. The Cs capacitors can be virtually any plastic film or low to medium-K ceramic capacitor. Acceptable capacitor types for most uses include PPS film, polypropylene film, and NP0 and X5R / X7R ceramics. Lower grades than X5R / X7R are not advised. The oscillator frequency can be verified by measuring the burst pulses at the start of a burst. • In spread-spectrum mode, the first pulses of a burst should ideally be 2.87µs • In non spread-spectrum mode, the target value is 2.67µs For most applications Cs will be in the range 680pF to 50nF; larger values of Cs require better quality capacitors to ensure reliable sensing. In a few applications sufficient sensitivity will be achieved with Cs less than 680pF. If very high sensitivity is required then the 50nF value may be exceeded hence the 100nF maximum in Section 4.2, page 13; in this case greater care should be taken over the QT1103 circuit layout and interactions with neighboring electronics. If in doubt, make the pulses on the narrower side (i.e. a faster oscillator) when using the higher baud rates, and conversely on the wider side when using the lowest baud rates. As the sensitivity of the keys, and hence the required values of Cs, are affected by the presence and connection of the option resistors (see Section 2.2, page 9), then final selection of Cs values should take place after the options choice has been finalized. 3.2 Spread-spectrum Circuit The QT1103 offers the ability to spectrally spread its frequency of operation to heavily reduce susceptibility to external noise sources and to limit RF emissions. The SS pin is used to modulate an external passive RC network that modulates the OSC pin. OSC is the main oscillator current input. The circuits and recommended values are shown in Figures 1.1 and 1.2. 3.4 Rsns Resistors Series resistors RSNS (RSNS0...RSNS9) are in line with the electrode connections and should be used to limit electrostatic discharge (ESD) currents and to suppress radio frequency interference (RFI). For most applications RSNS will be in the range 4.7k to 33k each. In a few applications with low loading on the sense keys the value may be up to 100k. The resistors Rb1 and Rb2 should be changed depending on Vdd. As shown in Figures 1.1 and 1.2, three sets of values are recommended for these resistors depending on Vdd. The power curves in Section 4.6 also show the effect of these resistors. The circuit can be eliminated, if it is not desired, by using a resistor from OSC to VDD to drive the oscillator, and connecting SS to Vss with a 100kΩ resistor (see Section 3.1). Although these resistors may be omitted, the device may become susceptible to external noise or RFI. For details of how to select these resistors see the Application Note AN-KD02, downloadable from the Quantum website http://www.qprox.com (go to the Support tab and click Application Notes). The spread-spectrum RC network might need to be modified slightly with longer burst lengths. The sawtooth waveform observed on SS should reach a crest height as follows: • Vdd >= 3.6V: 17 percent of Vdd • Vdd < 3.6V: 20 percent of Vdd More stray capacitance on an electrode or sense trace will decrease sensitivity on the corresponding key; Cs will have to be increased to compensate. 3.5 Power Supply The power supply can range from 2.8V to 5.0V. If this fluctuates slowly with temperature, the device will track and compensate for these changes automatically with only minor changes in sensitivity. If the supply voltage drifts or shifts quickly, the drift compensation mechanism will not be able to keep up, causing sensitivity anomalies or false detections. The Css capacitor connected to SS (Figures 1.1 and 1.2) should be adjusted so that the waveform approximates the above amplitude, ±10 percent, during normal operation in the target circuit. Where the bursts are of differing lengths, the adjustment should be done for the longer burst. If this is done, the circuit will give a spectral modulation of 12-15 percent. A typical value of Css is 100nF. The power supply should be locally regulated using a three-terminal device, to between 2.8V and 5.0V. If the supply is shared with another electronic system, care should be taken to ensure that the supply is free of digital spikes, sags, and surges which can cause adverse effects. It is not recommended to include a series inductor in the power supply to the QT1103. 3.3 Cs Sample Capacitors - Sensitivity The Cs sample capacitors accumulate the charge from the key electrodes and hence determine sensitivity. The values of Cs can differ for each channel, permitting differences in sensitivity from key to key or to balance unequal sensitivities. Higher values of Cs make the corresponding key more sensitive. For proper operation a 0.1µF or greater bypass capacitor must be used between Vdd and Vss. The bypass capacitor should be routed with very short tracks to the device’s Vss and Vdd pins. Unequal sensitivities can occur due to key size and placement differences, stray wiring capacitances, and option resistor connection. 3.6 PCB Layout and Construction Refer to Quantum application note AN-KD02 for information related to layout and construction matters.
